I am not pro-chevy or ford-hating. You guys are not even reading my posts.....I guess I shouldn't be surprised.

Hope you get something you like, Ben. Good luck on the search!

The CrewCab is where it at, my friend.
I love mine so much, it infringes on breaking the 1st Commandment.


All those trucks look great, but I'd hold out for a CCab and skip the Scab. Make the jump to full-size land worth the parking and gas-pump penalty. Do it!

I have never complained about my Ranger. I said it has cost me a lot, and that is why it is still broken. If I have ever complained about it, I think the only thing I have said is that it's not high enough.

You guys need to pull your heads out of your asses.

YOU HAVE YOUR OPINIONS, I HAVE MINE. Let it go!

And it's 13 years older, noob.

All trucks, cars, bikes, etc. no matter what brand, if they were built/finished at quitin time on a Friday are questionable at best.

ANYTHING that's done at quitting time on the last day of a work week is questionable. I know, I have done some questionable stuff.

LaChance Builders.

Sorry to hear that, Ben. I've actually had some family stuff going on too, so I know what you're going through. It sucks, but life goes on.

Soooo I kinda like the floor shifters. I wish my f150 had it. But if you don't like it, you can get the 150 without it......its an optional item.....

1997 when they re-styled the F150, put the mod motor in, did away with small block pushrods... the F150 became a pile of junk.... and still is.

Now, I have a 3/4 ton Ford. Why? Because I choose to drive a Ford. I like Fords, but I don't call myself loyal to em. In all honesty, if I could afford one, I'd love a Dodge Cummins. Halftonwise, I'd take a new Titan or Tundra over a Chevy, Dodge, or Ford. American cars arent made like they used to be.
Have you looked at a Yota? Have you read some of the reviews that people give them? They rank nothing to the 150.

I may be biased because I have one but its a great truck. Its improved greatly from the older f150s.

Have you really driven one? Not just a test drive but daily?

I'm going to go ahead and put this out there. IDGAF what brand the truck is, they are all gay. I'll never own another truck again unless I need to like tow a boat or some crap. And all automatic shifters are gay, floor or column mounted, because automatics are gay. I'll never own another one of those either.


Yeah, I just one-up'd all you douches with my super brand biasedness lol.

I've test driven a Yota, and while it's not as solid as the others, it was a well built truck for what it was worth.

I actually eyed one last year for some time, and I honestly wasn't that impressed. My buddy Shawn has an 06, uses it as his DD and work truck doing hardwood flooring. He likes it, but wishes he would have kept his 83 F250 460... a couple trucks prior to the 06. I'm just not a big fan of the new F150's from a looks standpoint, and the damn lag in the throttle. If someone walked up and gave me the keys to one to own, I'd drive it, but it just isn't an older Ford truck ya know?

I drove a Toyota Tacoma limited TRD or some **** like that for a while... drove it for a work truck on a peat bog in FL, put that thing through hell and back... never one problem... other than getting stuck a few times.. but when I say hell... I mean HELL.

Ford, Dodge , Chevy I have broken my share of each one There all junk when Jeremy gets done with 'em ! It just drives me nuts to see all these "pretty " trucks out there . Give me a bench seat, three speed and inline six and I'm a happy guy. Same with the Ranger , the uglier the better ! If your going to buy a truck with all those luxury options , you might as well get a BMW or Lexus . Just my opinion , but you know what they say about opinions.....
